Question

What is a monster? Write a paragraph describing someone or something that seems monstrous to you and explain why.

Answer 1

To me, a monster would be a bully, or someone who puts me down. 

Monsters come in many forms to different people. For some people it may be a bully, to others it might be something that frightens them. In my eyes, a monster is a bully. Someone who puts me down for no reason is "a monster". To some people "monster" may mean the same thing, for example, to a mother a monster may be someone trying to hurt their children. For someone with a fear, like clowns, that would be considered a monster to them. The list goes on. It shows how people differ in different meanings to the word "monster." 

It isn't good, but there you go. Hope it helps to inspire you! Good luck! 
 

Answer 2

The definition of a monster can vary depending on the person you ask the question to. However, they are generally considered to have certain common characteristics. Monsters are generally grotesque or ugly creatures. They are usually considered scary, and most of the time, evil. Common examples of monsters are werewolves, mutants, mummies and zombies. Sometimes, we refer to humans as monsters too, in order to indicate that these are ugly, unlikeable and evil. In my case, I would consider a serial killer an example of a monster. This is because he carries out an act that is terribly evil and violent repeatedly, regardless of the pain he causes.
